First time since 1998, cricket is making its entry into the Commonwealth Games. The game made its debut in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia when the men's cricket teams from the Commonwealth nations participated in the quadrennial event. South Africa defeated Australia in the finals to clinch the gold medal. 24 years later, cricket is making its comeback in the multi-nation even with women's cricket making its debut.

Reigning world T20 champions Australia will be taking on India - the runners-up of T20 WC 2022 in Australia - on July 29.

India vs England, 3rd T20I, Nottingham: Suryakumar Yadav was in his element in the third and final T20I against England at Trent Bridge as the India batter smashed a brilliant hundred to keep India in the hunt of chasing down a mammoth target of 215 set by the hosts. Although India felt short by 17 runs, Suryakumar showed why he merits a regular spot in the middle-order of the India team and has pretty much cemented his place for the T20 World Cup to be played later in the year in Australia. Surya’s 117 came off 55 balls as the rest of the batters failed to get going on a batting friendly wicket at Trent Bridge. India captain Rohit Sharma was mighty pleased with the 31-year-old’s knock and said that he has grwon from strength to strength. “We are proud of the fight. Surya was magnificent to watch.

“Want Their Leagues To Have More Sponsorship”: Sunil Gavaskar On Demand to Allow Indian Players In Foreign Leagues | Cricket News
Franchise T20 leagues are an ever-growing phenomenon in world cricket currently. After the concept became a hit in countries like India, Australia and England, even South Africa and UAE have gone ahead with new franchise T20 leagues of their own. IPL franchise owners control majority of the teams in the two leagues. The abundance of franchise cricket has meant that players from around the world are getting a chance to play in multiple lucrative T20 leagues. However, active Indian players have so far not been allowed to play in any of the foreign leagues. Former Indian cricket team captain Sunil Gavaskar , in his column for Sportstar, touched upon the issue of the unavailability of Indian players in foreign leagues. "Some overseas former players have said that the Indian players should be allowed to play the Big Bash or the Hundred. Basically, they want their leagues to have more sponsorship etc. They are concerned about their cricket, which is totally understandable," … [Read more...] about “Want Their Leagues To Have More Sponsorship”: Sunil Gavaskar On Demand to Allow Indian Players In Foreign Leagues | Cricket News
West Indies vs New Zealand: Mitchell Santner Stars As New Zealand Beat West Indies In T20I Series Opener | Cricket News
West Indies' season of white ball woe continued on Wednesday when New Zealand completed a 13-run win in the first T20 International of a three-match series at Sabina Park in Jamaica.

New Zealand almost paid for a period of complacency towards the end of the match as an explosive unbroken 58-run eighth-wicket partnership between Romario Shepherd (31 not out) and Odean Smith (27 not out) gave the hosts a glimmer of hope after they had crashed to 114 for seven in the 16th over.

Asia Cup 2022: KL Rahul to undergo fitness test before boarding the flight to UAE, says report
The 30-year-old right-handed batter was in contention to lead the Indian Cricket Team in three ODIs against Zimbabwe but he wasn't named in the squad for the tour Down Under due to a hamstring issue.
